Keep Your Feet Firmly On The Ground
System Sensor Europe's new Vision family of conventional detectors has the unique feature of being testable from ground level using its laser-based remote test unit.
During commissioning or routine maintenance, the engineer can remotely set the detector into alarm from the ground, doing away with the need for cumbersome long poles or stepladders, thereby reducing the on-site time required Vision is designed for smaller, less complex installations such as offices, retail units, bars, restaurants, schools, nursing homes, small hotels and other similar commercial premises

New Vision Conventional Detector
System Sensor Europe has extended its Vision family of conventional detectors a 78C fixed temperature device, designed for use in applications such as boiler houses and machinery rooms.
COPTIR stable fire detector cuts false alarms
System Sensor, the world's largest detector manufacturer, is approaching the issue through technology development by stopping false alarm generation in the first place.
Eco friendly alternative to ionisation detectors
System Sensor Europe extends its product portfolio of high performance addressable fire detectors with the introduction of PTIR; the Photo Thermal Infra-Red detector.
The range is comprehensive, with a multi-criteria photo-thermal detector, a photoelectric detector, a rate of rise thermal detector and 58C and 78C fixed temperature detectors; standard low profile and deep surface mount bases complete the family.
The photoelectric and photo-thermal detectors feature automatic drift compensation, a feature, previously found only in addressable sensors, that offsets changes in sensitivity that would otherwise arise from the build up of dust during use.
A highly integrated design, on-board digital signal processing and a new optical chamber design results in an exceptionally stable and sensitive smoke detector.
The multi-criteria unit is an environmentally safe replacement for ionisation detectors, responding rapidly to fast flaming fires without the problems of transportation, storage and end of life disposal of radioactive material.
All models draw around 50æA quiescent current, minimising the load on the control panel.
Vision is third party approved to EN54 part5/part7 (2000) and it is compatible with the great majority of conventional control panels on the market, enabling it to be specified in both new installations and when existing systems are being extended.
